Subject: High iowait
Date: Mon, 21 Aug 2006 21:31:50 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3a1eedb70608211931w67f86bccpb383bb0ff8089f45@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I have a storage raid attached to my linux server running CentOS 4.3
kernel 2.6.9-39.0.2.ELsmp. My server goes into huge iowait when i try
to read/write lot of data to the storage device. How can i debug
whether the problem is with the storage device or some setting of the
operating system. Is there any known issue with this kernel? How can i
tune my system to reduce iowait time?

TIA
